It’s not a bad dress. We’re not crazy about the color-blocking, though. It tends to break up her shape too much. There’s a recent epidemic on the red carpet of sylph-like starlets suddenly losing their waists because they keep saying yes to dresses that obliterate them. Stop this, ladies. Stop this right now. It doesn’t make for a great look in pictures.

But it’s a bold and simple dress that allows for some sexiness without making her seem like she’s desperate to be ogled. There’s perhaps a bit too much glittery jewelry, but for the most part, she’s tastefully put together.

Discussion point for advanced classes: Nail and lip color: too clashy? Of course they shouldn’t have to match, but it seems like each of those shades of red belong on wildly different skin tones, no?
